Colusa CA. A woman thought she was dreaming when she saw a mountain lion sitting on her bed. Colusa Sun Herald reported this ,there was also a video of this cat running through town.

Just a matter of time before they kill a child.

I have no problem believing this. There are documented lions in the Butte Sink, only a few miles to the east of Colusa.

There are so few lions in California that they are endangered and have been protected from hunters since the 80's . This account is unpossible , ask the lawmakers and the bulk of the voters .

"As mountain lion populations have risen, interactions between humans and the pumas also have gone up. Unlike some cats like jaguars, which are even more wary of people, mountain lions can tolerate living near humans and are quite adaptable. Happily, mountain lion attacks on humans are very rare."

That's real comforting.
